so we have decided to keep the baby. I'm almost 9 weeks and we will wait to tell everyone. we live with his parents in the basement and wouldn't be moving out for a while. any creative, fun, not so serious ways to tell family about it? also, is there any preparation you wish you were doing or started thinking about at 9 weeks?
@swanson.jacquelyn, hmm not this early. It’s just mainly take care of your body in the beginning. But later on (I start at 20 weeks) getting clothes, bed stuff, bottles, diapers and wipes and stuff like that. I didn’t get to many diapers only because I didn’t know if baby was going to be allergic. It took trying 3 or 4 different diaper brands before I found one that worked for my babe. They wear different brands- even now.

I've got the basics of prenatal and eating, all that good stuff. I didn't know if there was any other preparation I should be doing
Apply for Medicaid in your state. Get on wic. Apply for food stamps if you need them. Start drinking water and eating healthier. You can buy some prenatals- i started with gummies cause it was easier to take. You can get some crackers to keep with you cause morning sickness is no joke.
Start eating healthier and taking a prenatal vitamin. I didn't and I ended up with anemia. I'm glad you decided to keep your baby! 🌈
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
❤️Getting to know you❤️
Since our May group is growing strong and we have a lot of new mommies joining and sharing their bfp's...Thought it will be fun to get to know each other as we all share our pregnancy journey!
I recommend applying for WIC asap. I'm still procrastinating on it even though it would help me a lot financially.
